Provided is an electronic device including: a housing; a camera module oriented in a first direction inside the housing; a camera window arranged in front of the camera module in the first direction; a cover including an opening into which the camera window is insertable, the cover coupled to the housing; and a window frame supporting the camera window and mounted on the cover. The window frame includes: a frame body including a support portion arranged in the opening and supporting the camera window, and a mounting portion extending from the support portion in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction and overlapped by the cover in the first direction; a retention member retaining a first gap between the mounting portion and the cover in the first direction; and a waterproof body configured to be elastically deformed while arranged between the mounting portion and the cover.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
2. The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the at least one body of the retention member comprises an adhesive body arranged between the mounting portion and the cover and adhering the mounting portion to the cover.
3. The electronic device of claim 2, wherein the waterproof body is softer than the adhesive body.
5. The electronic device of claim 4, wherein the waterproof body comprises a first portion arranged between the mounting portion and the cover, and a second portion extending from the first portion and arranged between the adhesive body and the mounting portion.
6. The electronic device of claim 5, wherein the elastic body extends from the second portion and comprises a material that is the same as a material of the waterproof body.
8. The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the mounting portion comprises a step into which a part of the waterproof body is inserted.
9. The electronic device of claim 4, wherein at least a part of the elastic body is overlapped by the waterproof body in the first direction.
10. The electronic device of claim 9, wherein a width of the elastic body is greater than a width of the waterproof body.
11. The electronic device of claim 2, wherein the waterproof body is arranged inside the adhesive body.
12. The electronic device of claim 1, further comprising a display arranged in the housing.
14. The electronic device of claim 13, further comprising an elastic body that is configured to provide an elastic force to the mounting portion to press the mounting portion to the cover.
17. The electronic device of claim 16, wherein the mounting portion comprises a step into which a part of the waterproof body is inserted.
18. The electronic device of claim 14, wherein at least a part of the elastic body is overlapped by the waterproof body in the first direction.
19. The electronic device of claim 18, wherein a width of the elastic body is greater than a width of the waterproof body.
20. The electronic device of claim 13, wherein the waterproof body is arranged inside the adhesive body.
